Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to gain approval for a transient merchant license for Mark Lazarchic/Renaissance Fireworks Inc. TRANSIENT MERCHANT LICENSE Applicant: Mark Lazarchic/Renaissance Fireworks Inc. Activity: Sale of Consumer Fireworks Location: 3435 Shoreline Drive Date: June 22 through July 5, 2018 Time: 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. 2. Background. Mr. Lazarchich has submitted an application for a transient merchant license to sell fireworks from a tent located in the parking lot at 3435 Shoreline Drive. Orono's City code currently allows a transient merchant to be licensed initially for 10 days, with the option for the City Council, at its sole discretion, to grant an extension for up to 50 additional days. In addition, the code limits the hours of activity from 8:00 am to 8:00pm. Mr. Lazarchic has also submitted the attached request for Council approval to allow 4 additional days of activity and an additional 1 hour of evening sales each day. The transient merchant and sale of consumer fireworks applications have been reviewed by staff and the Long Lake Fire Chief with recommendation for approval of the activity as well as the requested additional days and hours of operation; provided no problems are reported. Although Council approval is not required for the Sale of Consumer Fireworks permit, a draft copy is attached for Council review. Council approved a transient merchant license for Renaissance Fireworks in 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017 for the sale of consumer fireworks for additional days at the same location with the hours of operation from 10:00am - 9:00 pm. 3.
